Stevens 200

Jerry just mentioned the Stevens 200 in another post. It has been stated that it is the same gun as the Savage, just without the accutrigger. I am not calling Jerry a liar, I just want to try and get some confirmation on this.

Does anyone know? It seems reasonable. Does anyone have one?

I am going with .308 (Gun must #1-Be accurate #2-Hunt deer #3-Reasonable cost to shoot #4-Reasonable purchase cost, and .223 won't help with deer). I had about decided on the Savage, but if this is basically the same gun, just cheaper, then I can live with the blue barrel instead of stainless if it saves me upwards of 1/2 the MSRP (we'll see the real life difference).
